Gates McGrath
Gates McGrath leads Gates McGrath & Associates, a Winnipeg real estate team with Real Broker. Over the past three years, he has helped buyers and sellers close more than 150 transactions across Winnipeg and surrounding communities — from first-time buyers in St. Boniface and Transcona to upgraders in River Heights, Tuxedo, and Bridgwater Lakes, to investors and acreage owners outside the Perimeter.
Clients hire Gates for a straightforward reason: maximize every deal, minimize every delay. That means rigorous pricing analysis instead of round-number guesses, professional photography and tightly targeted marketing on every listing, and a buying process designed to surface the right home fast and write a clean, competitive offer that wins without overpaying.
Working with Real Broker gives Gates access to a cloud-based brokerage with leading-edge tools, transparent commissions, and a national network — which translates directly to better outcomes and a smoother experience for his clients. The brokerage is behind the scenes; clients work directly with Gates.
His process is built on two principles: communication and data. Communication means clients always know what's happening, what comes next, and what he's doing on their behalf. Data means every recommendation he makes — list price, offer strategy, holdout, walk-away — is grounded in current Winnipeg market evidence, not gut feel.
Whether you're buying, selling, or just want a real picture of what your home is worth in today's market, the easiest next step is a 15-minute call with Gates. No pressure, no commitment — just a clear answer.
Gary McKenzie
Gary brings a broad professional background to real estate. He spent several years working in the performing arts in Toronto, then nearly a decade living and working in Beijing, before returning to Winnipeg to be closer to family. His time overseas sharpened his ability to read people, negotiate across different perspectives, and stay composed when plans change at the last minute, all of which serve his clients well.
Gary has also owned and run his own business, so he understands leases, payroll, and what it takes to make the numbers work. He looks at every property the way an owner would, which is a big advantage for his clients. Whether you're buying your first home, moving up, or looking at an investment property, he'll help you see both the lifestyle side and the financial side of the decision.
Clients appreciate Gary's straightforward, honest approach. He explains everything in plain language, backs his advice with current Winnipeg market data, and will always tell you if a property isn't worth the asking price.
When he's not working, you'll usually find Gary at the gym or spending time with his dog, Bella.
If you're thinking about buying or selling, or just want to know what your home is worth, reach out to Gary for a quick 15-minute call. He's happy to help!
